The Belle is a San Francisco Bay landmark that evokes the city’s turn-of-the-century Barbary Coast energy. The 292-foot sternwheeler features Art Nouveau style on all three enclosed levels, plus a spacious sun deck and three full wrap-around decks. The crown jewel of San Francisco Bay, she holds up to 600 per level and is a favorite for cocktail parties, trade shows and celebrations.

The beautifully renovated Belle accommodates groups of 250 to 600 per deck. Her classic lines, stern paddlewheel and ornate detailing recall the elegant riverboats of the late 1800s. Her presence on the bay will capture your imagination with its grandeur and style that is uniquely San Francisco.

Hornblower Cruises and Events helped us realize that any event you can do on land can also be done on the water. The only difference is my guests will remember those views from the Bay much better then any indoor venue.

The customer service on board was impeccable. From the moment we walked onto the boat we were greeted by the captain and throughout the cruise our server was very attentive.
